A report from The Daily Mail states that Sheffield Wednesday is one of several clubs that have enquired about John McAtee, a 27-year-old English forward for Bolton Wanderers. The same report indicates that Charlton Athletic, Lincoln City, and Cardiff City are also interested. Sheffield Wednesday are seeking new players for their rebuild and may have considered McAtee an attainable target due to his previous fringe status at Bolton. However, an impressive performance by McAtee on the opening day of the season is said to have attracted more interest, with the transfer window in its final two weeks. Bolton's plans to sign more attackers could still lead to his departure, but his recent form might persuade the club to keep him. John McAtee joined Bolton in August 2024 and has a contract with the club until June 2027. According to Transfermarkt, his current market value is €400k.
